So does this mean you *don't* want a $750,000 McMansion here so that you can be a member? At least they give you the option to spend it on drinks. I would need at least $60 worth of booze to ease the pain of being a social member there. We're such philistines.

Kudos on the great entries, but I'm sorry you had to suffer for our amusement. Might be a good idea just to go to a really good restaurant next time. Or you could go to Mountain Mama's Restaurant and Gift Shop on Livingston east of Parsons if you really want to beat me to it and possibly go for the trifecta.

Yikes. It's a shame they didn't want to honor your certificate and lash out with personal insults to top it off. At that point it doesn't really matter how good the food is. The good news is that there are plenty of other Ethiopian restaurants to choose from. Of course you have Blue Nile and then there's Lalibela, Mesob, Selam and even Addisu, an Ethiopian bakery, all on S Hamilton. Darbo also serves Ethiopian in addition to Somali.
